Making connections

fig.

1.

Before starting the connection procedure, make sure that
the power to all devices has been turned off.

2.

After reading

“Connecting the RD-700 to External

Equipment”

(p. 22), connect an audio device/system or

headphones.

3.

Connect the external MIDI device with the MIDI cable as
shown in the figure below.

4.

As described in

“Turning On the Power”

(p. 24), turn on

the power of each device.

Setting the Channels

Set the RD-700’s receive channel to match the external MIDI
device’s transmit channel.

For instructions on setting the RD-700’s Receive channel,
refer to

“Setting the Receive Channel (Receive Channel)”

(p. 90).

When both channels are matched, playing the external MIDI
device produces sounds from the RD-700’s sound generator.

For instructions on how to set the transmit channel of the
external MIDI device, refer to the owner’s manual for your
external MIDI device.

Selecting RD-700 Sounds from an
External MIDI Device

Transmitting Bank Select (Controller Number 0, 32) and
Program Change messages from the external MIDI device to
the RD-700 allows you to switch Setups and Tones.

Switching Setups

The MIDI messages transmitted by the external MIDI device
will be received by the RD-700 to select Setups as shown in
the following table.

When switching setups, you must match the MIDI channel of
the transmitting device with the RD-700’s Control channel.
(p. 70)

When switching the tones in each part, match the MIDI
channel of the transmitting device with the RD-700’s Receive
channel. However, when the Control channel and the
Receive channel are both set to the same channel, the Control
channel takes priority, and setups are switched.

Switching Tones

The MIDI messages transmitted by the external MIDI device
will be received by the RD-700 to select Tones as shown in
the following table.

For details on the SRX Series, refer to the owner’s manual for
the SRX Series Wave Expansion Board.
